JerryRigEverything - What does 'Rodent Tape' taste like?
The video discusses a product called "spicy rodent electrical tape," which is intended to prevent rodents from chewing on electrical wires in cars. This tape is manufactured by Honda and is infused with capsaicin, the active ingredient in hot peppers, to deter rodents. The presenter tests the tape by pretending to be a rodent and finds that the tape is not very spicy, comparing it to regular electrical tape. The presenter doubts its effectiveness in deterring rodents, suggesting that using hot sauce might be more effective. The tape is expensive, costing around $50, and the presenter rates it poorly, giving it a one out of ten for effectiveness.
